Typing and Data Entry Speed Tests

Fast and accurate keyboarding skills are a requirement for most jobs today. Multiple typos in a report or incorrectly keyed orders are not acceptable to clients or co-workers. Do you have a plan to measure this basic skill in job applicants?

EmployTest offers two versions of keyboarding tests, where the user must enter information quickly and accurately in a designated time period, depending on the test:

Typing test: the user types paragraph text in a report format. Score given in Words Per Minute (WPM).

Data Entry test (alpha): the user types in simulated contact information to simulate an order or customer service scenario. Score given in keystrokes per hour.

Data Entry test (numeric): the user types in rows of numbers to simulate an accounting, inventory coding or data entry role. Score given in keystrokes per hour.

Your applicants can use these typing tests online through EmployTest.com. For online testing, pricing is based on volume purchased, starting around $20 per test. Your testing account can be set up today so you can start testing immediately.
